    Shotgun exhaust dB levels

    So I am running a tubular mani, 3inch elbow, 3inch downpipe decat and a shotgun exhaust. The things is too loud.
    Was wondering how to make it quieter or if anyone has had any problems beeing stopped on road. I like the look but it's soo dam loud lol

    You can get a decat silencer - I wouldn't recommend the japspeed one but getting one made at a garage/yourself.

    I have been quoted ~£200 - £240 in Hertfordshire area. The japspeed one sits at an angle so quite easy to catch on bumps etc.

    Picture shows it on my car (ignore the crumpled chassis rails). I am pretty sure I am not being stupid when mounting it and I have read other comments about it being at an angle.

    I will say that it will most likely still be pretty loud but it makes it nicer on longer journeys and takes the edge off a bit.

    Yeh I can see what u mean. Only reason I want one its because the shotgun exhaust is soo loud and don't really fancy beeing pulled over because of it.

    Japspeed stuff is poor fitting, chinese crap, just avoid at all costs. As green_rs13 says, if you dont want a loud car all the time, get a proper cat back with a back box. If you want obnoxious noise but also normal sound, get an exhaust cut out valve and have the best of both worlds
